I have a thing that you can cough into and it suppresses your cough. It has a mouthpiece with a baffle filled with cotton balls. I forget the name of it, but it works pretty well. I have had it for a long time and don't remember where I ever got it. If I can find a name on it, I will let you know.

I saw something like this on TV hunting show many years ago, don't know what the name was either but seem to work.

I had 2 hunting trips that were a complete bust this season due to coughing. all the cough drops and crown in the world didnt help. I hunt in creekbottoms in the hardwoods.....so every cough sounded like a MOAB going off.

It's amazing to me how I can leave camp coughing, but once in the stand or blind, the need to cough pretty much stops.
I have coughed(not a violent cough), with deer 90yds out and it didn't spook them. Of course they did look up and around!

Take along a dish rag. Stuff your mouth with it and bite down. Kind of cover your mouth with the rest of it and cough. You'll be surprised!!

Example....If it was layed out flat. Pinch dead center and pick it up. Choke it with the other hand about dead center as it's draping down. Bite on the top half, relatively, and ball up the bottom portion in your hand and use it to cover your mouth.

And when yall get the visual of my example, this thread just might change directions on the topic!!!

hold a rag tight against your mouth when you cough.
I hear the cows on my lease coughing all the time or at least sounding like a cough and a deer cant tell if its a hunter or a cow.
I had a fit with deer inside 50 yds and not one even raised its head

I don’t have alot of time to hunt. Maybe 1 day a week. If I get the chance to go I go. I went one time and had to cough frequently. Coughed into my hand. After one cough it wasn’t but a few minutes and a deer showed up. Found if you take a drink when you feel it coming it will help most of the time.

I had 4 bucks under me last week, all within 18 yards and after fighting it forever I couldn't hold it anymore. Thought I was going to puke fighting it off. COOOUUUGH.....they never looked up. Lol. Blew my mind
